ing the sum total of loss from the same
disease in money value of about $145, 900.
DR.. Billings, in reference to the entire
United States, says, "It can be shown that
the direct pecuniary loss to the country,
on account of preventable sickness and
mortality, is certainly over 100, 900, 900
annually, and this without taking account
of expenditures incurred on account of
sickness, or the usual loss due to great
epidemics, both from waste of life and in
jury to commerce. This makes North
Carolina lose from sickness and mortali-
ty, with population of one and half
millions, annually, three millions of dol
lars, or two dollars to each citizen.
Edgecombe county, with population of
$4,000, $52, 900. Wake county, with
population of 48, 900, $96, 900. Mecklen-
burg, with population of $4,000, $72,-

The mortuary loss of North Carolina by
typhoid fever annually, is sufficient to

all of whom, to-day, instead of sleeping in
their graves, should be living, loving, ac-

Even moderately well applied laws of
hygiene, christian control of the passions
and appetite, and the prevention of preven-
table disease, would do more to increase
our population and develop our resources
than any immigration Bureau, or Indus

The greater part of the natural health
is the income from the work, which is the
outcome Of the natural health, says Sir
James Paget.
The above extracts from the address
have value and demonstrate the wisdom
OF the State in giving aid to the State
Board of Health. DIR. Jones well says that
the State ought to give still greater aid.
Have Republicans Turned Farmers.
Especial Cor. STATE CHRoNICLE.1
Who is the Secretary of the North Caro-
lima Agricultural Society, and what is his
pays We have seen it stated in the papers
that Mr.. John Nichols has been continued
as Secretary, and has agreed to serve the
Society for nothing, during the present
year. Ii this is so. we think q mistake
has been committed. 1t is well known
that Mr.. Nichols is an active politician,
seeking to advance the interest of the Re
publican party; and no man ought to be
Secretary of the Agricultural Society who
is actively engaged in politics. We do not
believe that Mr.. Nichols is, altogether, dis
interested in his proposal to serve the So
ciety for nothing We all know that he is
not an agriculturist. To the average mind
it would seem that Mr.. Nichols has some
other idea in view than serving the inter
est of the farmers, free.
Any one who has observed the frequent
TO- ha off, e h<,S ~.
the last Annual Fair, would be impressed
with the belief that said Office had been
converted into a headquarters for the Re-
publican party in Raleigh and surrounding
country, or else that the Republican poll
ticians of this community had suddenly
turned farmers and gone to work, which
am sorry to say is not the case.
Now We object to the Agricultural So
ciety furnishing headquarters for his party
even though Mr.. Nichols does free service
as Secretary.

great loss to science aBd literature. He
was born in C5eymsns, N. Y, on
June 3, 1921, but while a child his
parents removed to Saratoga. At tho
age OF | 5 he suffered from ophthalmia,
the effects Of which rendered him
blind for several years. His eyesight
was defective even after his recovery
from blindness, and frequently he has
been un able to read. His sister, Miss
Anne Eliza Youmans, proved to be
an invaluable aid to him in after years
in his researches into chemistry and
physics. She read for him and CO.
operated with him in his experiments,
and he did his writing on machine
of his own inveution. Hs had been
connected with the Appletons for
forty years, was the founder of the
Popular Science Mon h'y tia 1922, and
in 1871 pr jeCted the international
scientific series. He published sew
